pyliblzma 0.5.0 released & FOSDEM Mandriva stand

I’ve finally gotten around to spend some time on updating pyliblzma with xz support
and some other improvements and a lot of fixes and cleanups.

I ended up spending way more time on this than I was expecting since it was quite
a while since I last time messed around with the code or even the python C api at all.
While I’ve implemented the most critical parts for xz support, there’s still a lot of
interesting stuff in the liblzma api that I should get around to implement support
for later (ie. support for selecting several different filters)..

Now that I’ve gotten the release done and it’s status is no longer broken with
latest xz release, I’ll hopefully spend my time on some school stuff and also
game coding again, although I expect that I’ll have to do a 0.5.1 bugfix release
sometime soon. :p

I was also asked by Anne to help out at the Mandriva stand at FOSDEM the
other day, so for anyone who want to say hi, you’ll probably find me there
sometime where I’ll be answering all your questions and what not related
to Mandriva Linux. :)
